Hmmmm... I have a folder full of 'open source' freely given code for Rev -- libraries and examples..... this doesn't count?

I think it's an interesting characteristic of Rev - there is a huge amount freely given "open source" Rev stacks.

But, as far as I know, there have been few examples of successful, completed *collaborative* open source developments in Rev. All the stacks I can think of have been developed and donated by individuals (of course, they can take ideas from previous stacks, or build on top of previous stacks, they may often have other Revvers helping with Beta test, etc.) - but as far as I've seen, there haven't been any highly visible multi-developer efforts.

It may be (puts on 'optimist' hat) that Rev is so much more productive that an individual can do so much more .... or it may be (puts on 'pessimist' hat) that the lack of a RCS / CVS / subversion equivalent makes multi-developer efforts so much harder in Rev than in other languages that it just hasn't happened.

If I've forgotten something stupid, or if some efforts have been multi-developer and I just didn't know, I'd be happy to be corrected.
